I have in mind to display a different image/colour combination to all of the spaces that are NOT part of the webpage display itself. I've seen that area referred to as "pasterboard" in some documentation.

In the example, the page dimensions have a brown gradient background. The area outside of the "page" is just a topographical image.
My question is: Can I even manage that area outside of the page dimensions? What tool will allow me to do that or HOW can I do that?
